why should a person have to look sideways to see a video you should be proud enough to show it the right way so people can get a better understanding of what you are doing thanks

My daughter was doing the video, was going for a taller shot, and didn't know I couldn't rotate it like you can a picture.

Thank you. Thank you for posting informative video and instruction on how to make paper-adobe.

Thank you for adding background music that i can enjoy while concentrating on the subject matter; 'music' that doesn't promote the use of a straight jacket (like some I've heard).

Hey! Don't pay attention to the negative comments, this video is GREAT!

It tells you in your title and opening what's going on, shows you using a tow mixer...which is very cool!...gives the proportions of materials used and a great view of the forms and how they're filled with the paper-adobe mix. Simply GREAT!

Additionally, I dig the music and the honesty of the video. RIGHT ON!!!

I could've gone a little lighter on the clay.

But the blocks turned out fine.

And thanks for posting this!
